Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance between two points, we subtract the x - x coordinates and y - y coordinates.

-1 - (-1) = 0

-8 - (-4) = -4

There was only a change in the y coordinates, so we will only account for this.

The distance between the points is four units.

2. John and Jen went to the farmers market to buy fruit. John bought 3 boxes of oranges and 9 boxes of cherries for $78. Jen bou

Answer:

Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y

3x + 9y = 78

8x + 4y = 58

Solving equation using elimination method

multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3

8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)

3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)

24x + 72 y = 624

24x + 12y = 174

subtracting,

60 y = 450

y = 7.5

3x + 9(7.5) = 78

3x + 67.5 = 78

3x = 78 - 67.5

3x = 10.5

x = 3.5

<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>

Assume that adults were randomly selected for a poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund

ser-zykov [4K]

<u>Testing the hypothesis</u>, it is found that since the <u>p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01</u>, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the <u>proportion is of 0.5</u>, that is:

$H_0: p = 0.5$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the <u>proportion is different of 0.5</u>, that is:

$H_1: p \neq 0.5$

The test statistic is given by:

$z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}$

In which:

$\overline{p}$ is the sample proportion.
p is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are given by:

$p = 0.5, n = 483 + 398 = 881, \overline{p} = \frac{483}{881} = 0.5482$

The value of the test statistic is:

$z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.5482 - 0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{881}}}$

$z = 2.86$

Since we have a <u>two-tailed test</u>(test if the proportion is different of a value), the p-value of the test is P(|z| > 2.86), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -2.86.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.86 has a p-value of 0.0021.

2(0.0021) = 0.0042

Since the <u>p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01</u>, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.
